Sayyidi Ala Hazrat's (Alaihir Rahma) Practice of Making Abundant Dua During Janaazah Salaah

Imam-e-Ahl-e-Sunnat, Sayyidi Ala Hazrat Imam Ahmad Raza Khan Alaihir Rahmah, was known for his deep compassion toward all members of the Ahl-e-Sunnat Wa Jama'at. He would frequently attend Janaazah Salaah and express his heartfelt sympathy for the deceased by making abundant and sincere Dua, both during the Janaazah Salaah and after it.

As mentioned in Hayaat-e-Ala Hazrat, whenever Sayyidi Ala Hazrat Alaihir Rahmah led a Janaazah Salaah, those present would feel as though he was passionately interceding for the forgiveness of the departed soul. His Janaazah Salaah would often last longer than usual. The reason, though simple, was deeply meaningful, he would recite all the duas related to Janaazah that are found in the Hadiths, reflecting his sincere care and love for the deceased.

We should also adopt this noble practice from the blessed life of Sayyidi Ala Hazrat Alaihir Rahmah. Our duas should not be limited to ourselves; we should also remember our parents, teachers, relatives, and the entire Muslim Ummah, asking Allah Almighty to forgive them, have mercy on them, and elevate their ranks in the hereafter.
